OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.mail.yahoo.com')dnl FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl FEATURE(`local_procmail')dnl FEATURE(`genericstable', `hash /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl MASQUERADE_AS(`yahoo.com')dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl This is my mc file. The only other thing I did was create the genericstable like you showed me; david sky_tracker@yahoo.com and created the genericstable.db file; makemap hash /etc/mail/genericstable.db < /etc/mail/genericstable If I recall correctly, you have to go to your set options at your yahoo mail site to enable smtp/pop send/collection of mail. If you do this the same as I, you must be able to send with yahoo. I have no choice but to send with yahoo, because questions@freebsd.org does a reverse dsn check on the domain name and for some reason all of my _paid_ for email addresses do not have reverse dns. Thanks for your help once again. Good luck. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
